Gun violence is the number one cause of death for the children of America.

Elected officials in state legislatures and Congress must have the courage to pass red flag and safe storage laws, make background checks universal, and ban assault weapons.

We agree 💯% with Rep. Debbie Dingell!

There is a bipartisan tax bill, H.R. 7024, that President Biden supports and would cut taxes by $33B for families with children, but it being blocked in the Senate by Senate Republicans members.

The Senate Republicans supports reimposing “baby and child penalties” on families having babies 👶.

We just had a bill on the floor that requires teachers to out LGBTQ students to their parents. I know students aged 15-17 who were kicked out of their homes when they were outed. I know there are a large # of LGBTQ homeless kids and many are transgender. This bill is harmful.

Pass H.R. 7024! Get rid of the “baby penalties’ in the Child Tax Credit.

#ChildTaxCreditForUS

H.R. 7024 would mitigate “baby and child penalties” in the Child Tax Credit.

Unfortunately, some Senate Republicans members want to reimpose those penalties on children.

Pass H.R. 7024 now without harmful amendments to children. firstfocus.org/resource/the-c…

What do supporters of the parental rights bill by Virginia Foxx and Tim Scott have to say about this? Here are other problems with that bill. buff.ly/4cnQkZL

In the richest country in the world, it’s a disgrace that millions of parents struggle to feed their families.

I joined Ron Wyden and National Parents Union to urge my colleagues to pass the Wyden-Smith tax bill and expand the Child Tax Credit to support families across the country.

The changes being pushed by a few senators to the Child Tax Credit seek the reimposition of “baby and child penalties” that punish families who have a baby. —> firstfocus.org/resource/the-c…

#Champion4Children Governor Tim Walz!

As a pediatrician, I saw firsthand how economic disparities can impact children’s health.

I am grateful for the hard work of Office of Head Start in Weld County, which give students the tools they need to be successful at school.

We have a question for Eric Hovde.

Would you vote for or against H.R. 7024, the legislation that would improve the Child Tax Credit?
